No way back , we can only get below average players, who only come for the money , the passion has gone, I can't see us coming back, ever.

RIP.

That's a bit sensationalist Scott. We are in the shit, but it's not the end of the world yet. Some of the squad are out of contract in the summer, so there's some hope.

the passion certainly has gone, but it can return if we had a manager who had a fucking clue what he was doing, he is taking us backwards and all the excuses about debt and FFP rules are just there to disguise the fact that he is not up to the job

I've been through this before Scott,and it's never easy,but things can get better. But it will only begin when the club rids itself of a self serving hierarchy,a piss poor manager and a group of players not fit to wear a shirt once graced by the likes of Lofthouse,Banks, Hartle and Okocha,to name but a few.

Agreed bonce, but this does feel a lot like the mid eighties, the atmosphere around the club reeks of those awful days and I fear that unless Eddie acts decisively very soon we might not have a second saviour there if we fall as far as we did then.

I heard he didn't wanna be anywhere near the players after that embarrassment. He got a taxi home. Expect to see lennie in the post match interview.

Not quite the end. Anybody who watched when we played in the fourth division will give testimony to that. However that is cold comfort, as I have stated before it will get much worse before it gets better and I have resigned myself to the fact that I won't watch my team in the top flight again in my lifetime.
Having watched the Whites in the top flight five times, I consider myself rather lucky.
Dark days.

As I've said before on here, the big difference between back then and now is, we were just skint in the 80's.

Nowadays, we're £170m in debt and I don't care what Gartside says about how it's not "real" debt, it's still a big fucking debt and it could potentially kill us.

We could of course sell the North Stand off to the Co-Op and build a supermarket again though......

It may yet come to that. In the 80s we were skint but at least the managers were able to wheel and deal in the transfer market and we were lucky enough to have managers who were brilliant at it. Nowadays "undiscovered talent" is impossible to find and anyway our managers hands are tied.

all this crap about his hands being tied is bollocks, we should have more than enough quality at the club to be performing a million times better than we are. The fault lies with the manager, he is simply not up to the job
